Assorted Boneless Chicken Wings

A lot of people know that i LOVE chicken wings : D
Hence, it's no wonder that this dish has been on my mind for a long time,
and tonight i finally got to try making it!















The main hurdle to leap over for this dish is obviously...
How to take those bones off?!

Now, here's how:
- You need scissors
- You can't be afraid of touching, squishing, twisting... raw meat
- You must remain patient. VERY patient.

Steps:
1) Before you try de-boning them, all the wings must be completely thawed.
(If you bought frozen ones that is)
2) Set aside all drumsticks from the mid-section of the wings.
(i cooked Salt & Pepper Chicken drumsticks while preparing for this dish.
One wing for two dishes ; D)
3) Use scissors/knife to cut open the joints between the two bones.
4) Straighten the wing, use fingers to push the meat down towards the other end.
If the skin is stuck to the bone, use scissors to carefully cut it off.
5) Twist the bones in a spiral fashion a few times, and the bone will fall off.
TAAA DAAAAA! : )















** What's great about this dish is that,
you can stuff pretty much ANYTHING you like into the wings,
then pan-fry it!
Tonight, i tried:
A) Spinach
B) Cheddar Cheese
C) Bacon
















The recipe advised putting a toothpick through the opening,
so the stuffing won't fall out.
There were no toothpicks to be found at home... so i did without, and it was fine : )

Next time, i plan to try stuffing it with mushrooms / potatoes...
MMMmmm... : D

Enoki mushrooms with a black pepper sauce makes great stuffed wings!

Btw, I missed the last part about the toothpicks...I would do without them also cause the meat sorta puffs up when you cook them and it ends up enveloping the stuffing anyway. It's when you over stuff it that you need the toothpicks to hold the ends in place.
